Hewanorra Airport to Castries: See St. Lucia From the Water
Castries is St. Lucia’s capital and one of the island’s main coastal gateways. The city sits beside a protected harbor, with nearby beaches, resorts and communities stretching from La Toc through Vigie and Choc.
During your ferry transfer from UVF to Castries, the route follows the island’s west coast. Depending on weather and sea conditions, your views may include:
- The Pitons rising above Soufrière
- Coastal fishing villages
- Rainforest-covered hills
- Marigot Bay
- Quiet coves and beaches
- Castries Harbour and Point Seraphine
The scenery makes the journey feel shorter—and gives you a view of St. Lucia that you cannot experience from a car.
